April 6, 2016. Do you remember in times past how the Lord delivered you from bad situations that could have destroyed you? At the time, you knew it had to be the Lord's hand that overpowered the attack. Today, the Lord is sending help that is sure to deliver. But you must remember the Lord and His ability to utterly defeat the devil who is out to kill and destroy you. So, call upon the Lord who is mighty to deliver.
1 Samuel 17:37 (NASB) "And David said, "The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, "Go, and may the LORD be with you." Ras Robinson

April 6, 2016. I am saying again, change is coming. I'm not saying this to frighten you. I am saying it again so you will not be surprised. Change is necessary to move forward. Crabs, snakes, trees and plants and other living things have to shed their outer garments in order to grow. Do not be frightened. Instead be expectant for My growth. All will be well if you stay in Me and let Me work through you. Welcome change.
Joshua 1:9 (ESV) "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." Bev Robinson

April 6, 2016. Let goodness matter. When the world all around you is filled with things which are bad, let the wealth of My goodness transform the atmosphere where you live. Instead of coping with the ho-hum quandary of everyday existence, move above and beyond the fray. Allow My goodness to dictate what, where, and how righteous living is to take place. Don't succumb to evil surrounding you, but rather transform living for goodness sake and for My glorious kingdom.
Romans 12:9 (ESV) "Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good." Kevin Robinson

Ministry to Children in the Philippines
Does sponsoring a child make a difference? Here are some stories and notes that will bless you.
 JOLINA, age 15, lives in a very remote, but beautiful, place in the Philippines with her parents and younger brother. Her parents are farmers, uneducated and very poor. They carry water from a spring and have no electricity. They love their children and want a better life for them. To go to school, Jolina would have to walk an hour to the nearest road where she can catch a ride on a jeepney for another hour to school. So she is now living in the city with the pastor's family. She sees her family on weekends and holidays. Jolina told us she does not want to repeat the cycle of being poor. She really desires to go to school and is thankful to have a sponsor to help her do that. Her desire is to finish high school and college and become a teacher. Here is a recent note from Jolina: "Thank you for your support in my study. You are the instrument that God has given to me in order to have an education."
 JAYLORD, age 17, had to drop out of school after completing elementary school. His parents are very poor and did not have the money needed for him to continue in school. Despite the hardship, especially the lack of food to eat, he survived and never gave up his desire to finish his studies and achieve his ambition to become a Marine Engineer. He is smart, but his future did not look good. He is now in high school and doing well. He was so happy when he was chosen to be sponsored and so thankful to his sponsor. Here is a note from Jaylord: "You make my life meaningful and my future clearer. There are millions of less privileged children, but you chose me as one of your scholars. Thank you for helping me fulfill my dreams."
If you have ever wanted to have an impact on a young life, becoming a sponsor for a child too poor to go to school is a great way to do that and now is the time. A new school year begins in the Philippines the first week of June. One pastor wrote me this week about 10 children who desperately need to be sponsored. Five pastors in remote tribal areas have asked to be part of FCM so the children in those poor tribes can be helped. We believe God wants us to sponsor many more very poor children and send them to school, giving them hope and purpose in life.
Will you ask the Lord about it? See links below for your response.
